Full of historical sites and information - This was a great tour, but it is a lot of walking, a little over 2 miles. Some of the terrain is uneven. This is not for the mobility challenged. The Tour guide was very knowledgeable.

Walking tour Bridgetown - very informative - We went on the tour on December 29th - unfortunately I don’t remember the name of our guide but he was a really lovely, knowledgeable young man who did a great job of showing us around and telling us all about the history of Bridgetown. He was a credit to your company and made it a very enjoyable few hours.

Great tour - Be advised that this is a 10 minute taxi ride from the cruise ship. Also, they are not holding signs that makes them easily identifiable. This was a great tour and our guide was very passionate and knowledgeable. It was a lot of walking and even though it was very hot, we had a great time. Be sure to bring sunscreen!

Interesting insight into the history - An interesting insight into the history of Bridgetown. We had a small group and plenty of opportunities to ask follow-up questions. Our guide was a young man who was very knowledgeable about the city's history and was able to answer all our questions. The walk lasted a little longer than the original duration, but we also got to see all the "extra spots".

Good Tour - get some nice history background - The Tour itself was nice; good history information; the only reason it did not receive 5 stars was because the guide was 30 minutes late. While he was a good guide and made up his time and did a good job. We did not start till 10:30 am, so it got hot after about an hour, and it was kind of hard. But I appreciate it that he did come and made up his time and did not cut short the tour.

Awful, disappointing - Tour guide did not show up. Tours led by other leaders said this was not unusual for this tour. Too bad we were not informed before we planned our day around this activity . We called provided number but no one answered
